Silent Gen grandparents raised me. Mom really made an impact on my young mind talking about polio. How scared the kids and parents were, how thankful they were for the vaccine. This was a disease I was only aware of from elementary classes.

When I was a child, anti-vaccine talk simply didn't exist. Kinda like Nazis. Even if you felt that way, you damned sure wouldn't say anything because society would shun you.
